Hypothesis-deductive reasoning ability refers to the ability to think logically to formulate hypotheses based on existing scientific theories. This study aims to describe the hypothesis-deductive reasoning ability of Grade X students at Integrated Models Madani Senior High School Palu in learning physics, specifically on the topic of particle dynamics. This type of study is a qualitative research using a qualitative descriptive approach. The subjects in this study consisted of 26 students of Grade X Science 5 Integrated Models of Madani Senior High School Palu who had participated in studying the topic of particle dynamics. The instruments used include a hypothesis-deductive reasoning ability test and interview guidelines. The data obtained were then analyzed using descriptive analysis. The results of the analysis showed that the students’ hypothesis-deductive reasoning ability was 58.2%. This indicates that the students’ hypothesis-deductive reasoning ability is categorized as sufficient. The factor that affects the hypothesized-deductive reasoning ability is the learning process in the classroom as several students received the same form of questions, and the teacher provides direction as well as motivation, so that the classroom conditions are conducive.
